Plenty of shade
Veronica R.

Considering this is the only dog park i can find in the WACO area, I'm happy that while visiting i could let my Jack Russell run free. She was happy to be out of an apartment. I'm from the Austin area and dog parks are everywhere. As I can see the push for downtown WACO living, why in the world are there no "enclosed" places for pet owners to take their pets to? The H.O.T park space is huge for large dogs, the small dog area was pretty small and rather neglected as well as the medium sized dog area but I'm so grateful for it and an enclosed area either way. Nice with great hills, plenty of shade and benches and a nice walk path around the perimeter area. Friendly dogs (thank goodness) For some reason my GPS took me some place else but a nice man told me where to go to find the dog park. (on a bend next to the Texas Animal Med Ctr) The pond is dried out due to the heat. Obstacle course is old and in need of some work. Saw a black dog that didn't appear to belong to anyone and didn't look friendly but approached my dog and thankfully just walked away.

It's right down the road from Cameron Park as well as a small park on the east side of the Brazos River.

I love that they tried to make a dog park…read more.. But it's just ghetto. The people in Killeen are likely to blame. And up-front, I had a bad experience... but reading the other reviews it seems others did too. First up, it's a bring your own water sort of park, there is a faucet, but it didn't seem to be working when I was there. Even with the "Small" and "Large" sides to the park, people bring poorly trained aggressive dogs and don't really supervise them. I went to play fetch with my dog, and this other dog thought it was OK to try and corner my dog and then attack him just to get the ball. My dog was bleeding after the encounter, but no major damage. But it could have been. The other dog's owner, "Oh sorry, guess my dog plays a bit rough..." but it was a joke to him. He didn't even try and break them up, so there I was jumping into a dog fight... not at all where I wanted to be. Look, as long as you have shitty dog owners, you'll have a shitty dog park. This park isn't safe for dogs. Also... just a lot -- like a lot -- of dog shit that hadn't been picked up. That's on the owners, not the dog park. But it's on the dog park for not banning those owners. If I were the city, I'd just swing by once in a while and start writing tickets for all the un-neutered dogs. Some things you need to make a dog park work... * Water for the dogs. * Owners who actively supervise their dogs. * Some sort of common understanding that people will only use the park if their dog is neutered, and up-to-date on shots. * An enforced dog park ban list for people who have aggressive dogs. * An enforced dog park ban list for people who don't pick up after their dogs.

Love the park but don't like that people don't follow rules small dog park mean small dog park not…read morelarge dog park. Why is it so hard in 2022 for people to FOLLOW the dang rules. I go there with my 4lb chi and of course a man is sitting at the picnic table with a large dog. Well my dog is out walking and doing her thing and here comes the large dog well my little girl is not shy let big know she may be small but doesn't like big dogs. That's why we are in the small dog park!!! The owner gets on me because my 4lb chi takes up for herself against a dog who weighed at least 60lbs. Oh well dude FOLLOW DIRECTIONS NEXT TIME.
